“So, here you are,
too foreign for home
 too foreign for here. 
Never enough for both.”

[Arabic translation]
As high as you fly you're still low
As long as you live you'll still be young
Some things they just don't change,
It's just like cycles of the sun.

Guess I'm grown now
My life is homebound
I Found prose in my shows yet so profound how
This town grows in my soul yet so cold now...
Brown snow in my toes, but oh don't mind it!
Those numb steps of regrets are our climate- 
What a dumb mess in secret, but still I'm shining,
And when sun sets I moonshine, but still I'm driving.
still I'm driving....One man island,
torn between an ocean bridge was broken now
I'm floating in the search for doors to go in if
maybe open--  --
I could fit right in between
Weight of my sins within keeps aching to bend and shape these broken wings

If growing old and wise begins with young and dumb
I hope your soul survives the lessons you become
But never hold or hide, never hold or hide,
Never leave behind the stories that could come

"So here we are
[too strange] for home and
too foreign for here,
never enough for both"

If I could break my heart in three which parts of me would stray?
and--- which ones will depart to flee and leave me in the fray? 
The biggest is for my family-  a galaxy away,
I wonder for my sanity how much would need to stay?
Can't look back or you'll fall off the horse now,
Watch the tempo really close
Put that in your hands with the torch now.
Let its light flood and expose.
Gotta bask in the death of regrets,
Put the mask in its grave instead,
You'll always have so much to kill before your soul can grow.
Maybe it's good fo my heart to break, it's hard to say if I need it all
I see it travel outta place, post cards my way each and every fall
and every winter I feel safe, or dumb or numb or none at all
I'll see it back when birds migrate and I guess we'll break up by next fall
Searching to end to my work, but beauty is in my search
I could seek my eternity, mystique that is burning me 
and never ever find it that's the deepest absurdity
But the sun's gotta rise and set, never heard her question why
Forever young, and always old (but) couldn't mention why.

Bridge 2:
What's ya life about?
Enlighten me
Live on your knees or die on your feet 

Whatchya life about enlighten me, enlighten me

[ABBASQUIAT]
Hometown of the dirty politicians-concerned with their position
So they're locking opposition, not concerned with our conditions
I mean I wanna watch the news but get religion out of my television
Your life's worthless, Muslim or Christian  
You're just part of the millions wishing for better conditions
With a vision or a mission, ambitions or ammunition
We're the definition of that free man's schism

I'm not loyal to the king I am loyal to the kingdom
With a free man's vision
I need more than hashtags to get my friends out of prison
Tell me I'm clicking, you be my critic
This young boy's coming back politickin'

you be my critic.
Cairo, you're killing me, Cairo you're killing me
But you're my only love there's no other possibility
Remember vividly, the city symphonies
No room for the weak cuz the city has no sympathy.
